Ken Wilber on Jordan Peterson & Sam Harris

David Long

Last year, Jordan Peterson has debated with Sam Harris.[1] Ken Wilber has given his view on Jordan Peterson recently and has called him an "integral" thinker. David Long, in his own inimitable way, gives a fresh perspective on these contemporary philosophersoften siding with Harris. Says Long: Not only is Peterson not "integral", properly speaking, but even Ken Wilber sometimes doesn't meet his own standards!

David Long: “Ken Wilber betrays the Integral Model because of his bias.”
